Forecasts

Sky Power (6/5), Notation (3/1), Blowing Dixie (17/2), Thawry (11/1), Mostallim (12/1), Cold Harbour (14/1), Tynecastle Park (14/1), Lady Camelot (33/1), Scorched Earth (66/1)

NOTATION is lightly raced and has already proven herself over C&D. She may well have more to offer and looks the one to beat. Sky Power is a progressive colt who will go close if handling this unique surface. Thawry holds solid each-way claims.
